Answer: O the equal and opposite reaction of an action
Explanation:
According to Newton's Third Law, when you exert a force on an object, the object will exert an equal force back at you. This is essentially saying that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
In the context of LeBron James jumping, the action is when he pushes down on the surface of the court so the reaction will be the ground pushing back at him and pushing him up so that he jumps into the air.
Repetition. the word “alive” is repeated.
The answer is personification
Why?:
Personification- when a thing or an animal acts like humans
In this case landscape "listens", they don' t listen and then Shadows "holds" their breath, Shadows can't HOLD THEIR BREATH!!
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Character against nature.
First of all, it's really sad that we're teaching poetry with questions like this, because this question really sucks the life and beauty out of reading poetry.
A is your best answer. Obviously knowing the literal meaning of a word is an essential first step to understanding what's happening in a poem. It's hard to analyze a poem if you don't know what the words mean to begin with. Once you know those meanings, you can then move on to thinking about metaphorical or figurative (i.e., non-literal) meanings of the same word.
B is partially right, but it's not the best answer. Certainly knowing the literal meaning of a word CAN help you determine the narrator, but not all poems have narrators, and sometimes the literal meaning won't help you figure out who the narrator is (especially if the narrator is deliberately left unclear).
C and D are wrong, and as a general rule in multiple-choice questions you should be very suspicious of answer-choices that use extreme language (like "useless") or that completely shut down a possibility entirely (which happens in choice C).
